1. To solve the problem, let’s use the rule: the area of a rectangle is equal to the length of the height of the rectangle multiplied by the length of the base.

S (91) = height (7) * base (x)

2. Based on this rule, we find that the base is equal to the area divided by the length of the height of the rectangle.

x = 91/7

x = 13

Answer: the length of the base of the figure is 13 cm.
